Good Mail Day

When we were just entering the City of Bickleton, we had to stop for two male California Quail that were crossing the road. One decided to stop at the edge of the road and pose for a few photographs. He didn't seem to mind our cameras nor the vehicles driving by. I love their head plumes which make them so darn adorable and unique.

Most grand old houses in the northeast still have the classic mail slot, they say, though many have been moved up a bit from the very bottom of the door, to accommodate the postmen's backs......I'm trying to decide if the slightly faded part on the bottom of this door could have been where the original slot was, tho the wood doesn't look cut, just faded.....
HMM. Ok, I suspect mail hasn't been delivered to this mostly abandoned farmstead for some time. Spotted on a recent road trip we took just to get away.
Conrail's hotshot Mail-3 was curving along the Juniata River behind a typical six-pack of high-horsepower EMD and GE four axle motors.
The hot trailer trains were a constant sight along the Middle Division on what was once the mighty Pennsylvania Railroad and the less successful Penn Central.
This classic trackage is now unfortunately Norfolk Southern's Pittsburgh Line.
This is the night mail crossing the Border,
Bringing the cheque and the postal order,
Letters for the rich, letters for the poor,
The shop at the corner, the girl next door.
From Night Mail by W H Auden.

When I first got married it was so exciting to go the mailbox to get my mail. In fact, I would enter contests, send for coupons, order magazines anything just to fill my mailbox. Nowadays other than junk mail, my mailbox doesn't thrill me like it once did. Most of my bills are sent electronically and there is hardly any correspondence sent through the mail. Trying to be more environmentally aware last year I opted to skip mailed holiday greetings. I do miss the days of picking out special stationery and hand- writing letters to family and friends.
Everything in our society feels so urgent, we don't seem to want to wait for anything anymore. Do you remember mailing away your film and how exciting it was to get your photos back in the mail? I wouldn't want to go back to that but I think we need to learn about waiting and being excited again. Anticipating something is almost better than getting it.

Visiting Swindon GWR design built by BR in 1950 Manor Class 7920 had the honour
Two elevators above a building in the district La Defense of Paris.
In some way it made me think of a pneumatic mail system.

I posted an image about a year ago like this. When I'm at Lake Senachwine I always shoot these old mailboxes. Behind me is the abandoned house with and abandoned car in the driveway.

My goal with this series is to explore every day scenes under the cover of darkness. A street corner, a lamp post, a doorway. Big city, small town, urban, rural. Man-made light versus nature’s darkness–––light and shadow interpreting minimalist settings in black and white. To see more in this series, check out Cover Of Darkness
